Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Planning and Development Bill: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Anne Marie O'Connor:

I am conscious of the clock. I do not have anything further to add what Mr. Cussen said unless there are any more specific questions around the plan process. That is one of the biggest changes in the Bill. Some areas of the Bill are only minor amendments to what is there already, but there is the whole plan-making process, the hierarchy of plans and the philosophical change to a more plan-led system so that the issue raised around conflicts when it comes to the board or planning authorities making decisions and conflicts with national policy does not arise. I do not know if there are any specific questions. It is a very large area.
